LAS VEGAS, April 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ISC
West—Ruckus Wireless, a part of Brocade, today announced its
collaboration with Pelco by Schneider Electric™, a
manufacturer of video surveillance and security solutions, which
combines Ruckus' ZoneFlex™ access points (APs) and ICX
switches with Pelco by Schneider Electric's IP cameras and video
management system (VMS) solutions to offer flexible installation
options and enhanced solutions for physical security.
"Combining Ruckus Wi-Fi and Ethernet switching with
industry-leading IP video solutions offers system integrators the
ability to deploy and operate cameras that receive their power and
backhaul from either Ethernet switches or Wi-Fi APs without
sacrificing quality or security," said Bart
Giordano, vice president of business development, Ruckus
Business Unit at Brocade. "Through our solution, IP video is
deployed with reduced cost, time and complexity for a wide variety
of applications. This offers significant benefits to the physical
security industry and we are proud to enter the market working
alongside a key technology leader."
By leveraging Ruckus SmartMesh™ wireless
technology, it is now possible to deploy self-organizing and
healing networks specifically suited for video applications. This
allows for robust video delivery with a high level of tamper
resistance and low latency video monitoring functionality at sites
where traditional wired connectivity is not available. IP cameras
can now be installed for permanent or temporary placement alongside
wireless access points, without any need to run dedicated wired
backhaul to the location.
System integrators today typically select locations for IP video
and Wi-Fi APs in isolation. The ability to co-locate equipment and
share backhaul enables venues and integrators to more easily plan
their security and networking requirements and manage these systems
over a common secure network infrastructure. The offering reduces
installation cost and increases operational efficiency to deploy
Wi-Fi access along with IP video for smart cities, large public
venues, education, casino gaming, hospitality and other
applications.
"At Pelco by Schneider Electric, our goal is to deliver
meaningful innovations. We are able to accomplish this by
partnering with technology experts to bring new and improved
surveillance and security solutions to life," said Diane Feliciano, vice president of global
marketing at Pelco by Schneider Electric. "Partnering with Ruckus
Wireless gives us the opportunity to deliver a unique solution:
best-in-class Pelco IP camera technology combined with the ease and
flexibility of Ruckus' wireless capabilities. Customers can be
confident this integrated solution provides what they need, when
they need it most."
